The Nuxalk nation is an aboriginal people living in the area in and around Bella Coola, British Columbia. Their language is also called Nuxalk. Sometimes, people call them the Bella Coola.
The word Nuxalk is derived from the term for the Bella Coola valley.
The Nuxalk house in the Grand Hall is patterned after a house built in the village of Qwemqtc in the late 1800s, to represent Nusq'alst, a supernatural ancestor of Chief Clellamin, who built the house.
This originally served as the entrance to a house in the Nuxalk village of Tallio.
